Formula 1 is coming back to Circuit of the Americas on November 1-3, 2019! At this three-day celebration of speed and sound, you can cheer on Ferrari, Mercedes, McLaren, Haas and more at the only purpose-built F1 track in the United States. Plus, enjoy special concerts from international pop icon P!nk and Grammy Award-winners, Imagine Dragons!
Formula 1 began in 1950 when it was first defined in earnest as the premier single-seater racing category in worldwide motorsport. In the 70 odd years that have proceeded its humble beginnings, the Formula 1 name has become synonymous with speed and excellence. The competition represents a total convergence of human skill, both in driving these incredible vehicles and engineering them. Fast forward to now and you’ve got a prestigious international institution that promises more forms of entertainment than just competitive racing. Circuit of the Americas is well-known for being the essential destination in Austin for both sports and live music, and we can’t wait to enjoy both over these three days!
All weekend long, you’ll find festivities everywhere you turn. Start your planning by checking out this Schedule of Events and looking at all of the Ticket Packages available. You’ll find a variety of options for seating — from premium to bleachers to a grassy hillside. Take note that children ages 2 & under receive free general admission with a ticketed adult.
The most affordable way to take in all three days of the USGP is General Admission. GA areas don’t include assigned seats but allow you to find a grassy hillside to place a chair or a blanket. These areas are located throughout the Circuit in close proximity to concessions and merchandise areas. Choose from either Single Day tickets or the 3-Day Tickets to take in ALL of the action.
All Friday tickets include general admission for Imagine Dragons, and all Saturday tickets include general admission for P!nk. 3-Day Tickets include both concerts. You must purchase either a single-day or 3-day ticket option (there is not a ticket option just for the concerts). The Friday and Saturday night performances will take place on the Super Stage Festival Lawn, and is all general admission where you can find your best spot for viewing in the big, open field. If you really want to get closer to the stage for the concerts, limited upgrades are available during the online checkout process, or you can call 512-655-6300 to ask about standing room close to the stage. (So keep in mind that when you purchase your tickets, you are making a selection about where you would like to watch racing. After the end of track activity on Saturday and Sunday, guests will enter the Festival Lawn area for the shows.)
For the helpful info about the lay of the land at COTA, concessions, autograph sessions and lots of details including what’s allowed and prohibited to bring along with you, please visit their FAQ webpage.
Parking at COTA will require the purchase of a parking pass, which you can buy online here. Or you can buy a ticket to ride to and from Downtown on a shuttle.
